Summary
Hudson and Connor are best friends. Both are in stable relationships, and they’re about to begin filming the second season of Heated Rivalry. But a matching bracelet becomes the breaking point. Not only between them and their partners, but between the two of them as well. It marks the beginning of a deeper realization: what exists between them can no longer be defined as just friendship.
***"Because he’s my best friend," he said through his teeth.
"And I’m your boyfriend," François replied without raising his voice. "But when you’re tired, when you’re scared, when you start to doubt… you don’t choose me."
Silence fell between them again, more unbearable than before.
"I’m not saying you don’t love me," he added, quieter. "I’m saying I’m not the place where your heart comes to rest."
Connor swallowed. His throat felt tight, like anything he said would break something else.
"That’s not fair…"
"Maybe it’s not," François admitted, looking at him with a mix of exhaustion and pain. "But it’s my truth, and Connor, the truth is it hurts like hell to love someone who’s always looking somewhere else."

Summary
Ilya could see the best of David and Yuna in Shane. It was magnificent, to see their love reflected and amplified in his fiance, but it also scared him. Was his own father’s crass disregard, his mother’s sadness, amplified within him the same way?
Ilya cleared his throat.
”I think I was unfair to you yesterday, David. I am sorry.”
David frowned, still somehow managing to look kind. His oatmeal had long been forgotten, though he’d been scraping his spoon around the bowl in the same way that Shane often did when he was too busy thinking to actually eat.
“Oh, kiddo. You don’t have anything to say sorry to me for.”
Or: Ilya tries to navigate love, and love navigates its way back.
